Connecting to slsk has been pretty ropey lately.

Limewire >>> Soulseek, since they ditched the spyware last year. Connects OK every time, search facility much faster, you don't get stuck in queues, it's a Gnutella protocol so you automatically download the same file from multiple users and don't lose it if one of them logs off... what's not to like?

Acquisition is pretty neat, I guess. I, too, just got broadband and have been poking around.

three weeks pass...
the annoying thing about limewire--if indeed i'm using it right--is that while i can find lots of stuff, i can sort through it by album, so it's hard to acquire a full album unless i search by each individual song title. as for acquisition, i can't seem to find anything that way. maybe i'm using it wrong???

it is annoyingly laid-out but much easier to get albums.
